To me‚ the strategies both authors used were very effective in getting the point across to their readers. Colloquial language‚ figurative language‚ academic vocabulary and descriptive details are examples of some common strategies they put in place. Jeter used rhetorical questions and colloquial language to convey his experience about his goals and dreams and reaching

Christmas has become The Most Commercially Exploited Holiday Well it looks like it’s that time of year again‚ when twinkly lights are hung‚ families spend time together‚ and retailers start working overtime to beat last year sales. Christmas‚ is one of the many holidays that have lost its true meaning to commercialization. More than likely their first thoughts will be about buying the perfect gifts‚ having the most decorated house on the block‚ or having a silver haired fat man in red underwear
